4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda

Refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight. Unwrap and cut into 1/4-in. slices. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets; top each with a whole almond. Bake at 375 degrees F for 8-10 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Remove to wire racks to cool.
